AI Operating Thesis: $23.2M annual spend returns $110.1M value at 3.7x ROI.
Highest-ROI initiatives: RCM claim scrubbing (6.59x), CDI AI (6.14x), ambient scribing (4.00x) — all production-deployed with 72-88% adoption.
Radiology AI ROI (1.92x) is modest given infrastructure dependency; pilots in dermatology and LLM navigation showing promise but not yet validated.
Model governance tier is elevated — dermatology image model pilot and LLM-based prior auth letter generation flagged for accelerated validation.
Regulatory horizon: FDA SaMD Class II clearance for 2 pending models and California AB 3030 patient disclosure compliance by Q2 2026.
